In the Beginning

I've been meaning to start a blog for awhile, but feared taking time away from my other writing and using up my creative mojo on this sort of thing, but since I'm told this is what authors should be doing, here I am.

Today my goal is to figure out how to get this link to my website as I sit here and watch the nearly foot of snow outside my window, first time EVER in this area of Texas since recorded weather stuff.

Kathryn,This is a good start. I don't know a lot, but whatever I have learned, I'm most willing to share.

If you go to this link: Developing Turtleface, you can learn some about creating hyperlinks. Using Turtleface's explanation, I typed the links on a page in Word where I could easily access them and copy/paste, rather than having to type them in, each time.

About Me

I have been writing-to-publish for 20 years. My children's books include Crown Me!, Josh's Halloween Pumpkin, and coming out in September 2010 Wendy's Weather Warriors series. I've also done adaptation books of War of the Worlds and Journey to the Center of the Earth, due out in 2011. I also have a book for writers, The Organized Writer is a Selling Writer. I've had 1800 articles, essays, and short stories published in magazines and anthologies for kids and adults. I live in Texas with my husband, daughter, and 2 dogs (Smegol and Penny). I enjoy speaking to writers groups and school kids.
